Abstract: The invention relates to a shelf with cantilever brackets for heavy loads, in particular long products made of wood, plastic or metal, with supports and cantilevers brackets (5) extending from these. In known shelf systems, hanging and removing the cantilever brackets, which can generally only be effected at a certain angle, is problematic. For replacing or adding a cantilever bracket, in the event that a long length and/or small distance between shelves is involved, the brackets above it, with the loads on them, must previously be removed, involving a corresponding amount of work and time. These problems are solved using the invention, in that the cantilever brackets (5) can be fixed in the supports by lowering after horizontal insertion, two hooks or claws (10) being provided for each cantilever bracket, which respectively comprise a catch (11) and a claw end (12), the claw ends (12) at least partially gripping the flange from behind after lowering. The claw ends (12) are expediently designed with trapezoidal cross-section and angled away from the catch (11) and the angles of the claw ends (12) of two hooks (10) attached to a cantilever bracket (5) are directed mirror symmetrically inwards. The design of the cantilever bracket shelf according to the invention makes it particularly easy to assemble and vary. <IMAGE>

Abstract: A varistor material is disclosed which has a composition consisting essentially of 93-97 mole % of ZnO and 3-­7 mole % of MnO, a non-linear coefficient α of at least 20 and such a bulk density as to provide a porosity of greater than 15 % but not greater than 50 %, wherein the porosity is defined as follows: 
Porosity (%) = (1 - d/d₀) x 100 
wherein d represents the bulk density and d₀ represents the theoretical density of the single phase pure ZnO. The varistor material is produced by sintering a mixture containing ZnO powder and 3-7 mole %, based on ZnO + MnO, of a manganese compound at a temperature of 1100-1350 °C under a condition so that the resulting sintered body has the above porosity.

Abstract: The invention makes it possible to produce from a blank an article whose contour is altered, preferably linearly enlarged, with great precision in relation to a corres­ponding contour of a used model (1c). A copying machine is used in the production. The machine comprises, on the one hand, a first pair of units (1, 2) which are arranged so as to be rotatable. The model (1c) is arranged on the first unit (1) and the blank is arranged on the second unit (2). The machine also comprises a pair of second units (24, 25) in which one supports a detecting member (24a) which is brought into cooperation with the model, and the second unit supports a machining or actuating member which is brought into cooperation with and acts on the blank. The said pairs of units are displaced from and towards each other during production. In each pair of units, the units are also controlled individually so that the one unit executes second displacement movements relative to the other unit in such a way that the desired alteration is obtained.

Abstract: L'invention concerne un procédé de détermination d'une composante de la réponse d'un réservoir aux forces de la marée (telle que l'amplitude de variation ou temps de retard) dans un réservoir d'hydrocarbure. Le procédé consiste à mesurer une variable sensible aux forces de la marée à l'intérieur du réservoir sur une période de temps de mesure, à déterminer une valeur théorique terre-marée pour le réservoir pendant cette période de temps de mesure, et à déterminer la composante de la réponse aux forces de la marée en comparant les mesures variables et les déterminations théoriques terre-marée. Des exemples de variables qui sont sensibles aux forces de la marée sont le niveau d'un fluide dans un trou de forage, la pression et les contraintes dans un trou de forage. La période de temps de mesure devrait être suffisament longue de sorte que l'on prenne une mesure de variable maximum et minimum pendant cette période de temps (p.ex. 14 ou 24 heures).

Abstract: In the case of large round, oval or cornered objects, it is necessary for stability reasons during fire to create a further supporting point in the centre of the underside of the article in addition to the normal article foot. For this reason, a wave foot which can have the form of a web is integrally formed. Articles with this base configuration were hitherto ground by hand in a break-off machine. In contrast, the invention provides for the articles to be ground automatically by the articles, shown as oval plates 12, being placed with the corresponding work holders 14 on a rotary table 18 with six stations I, II, III, IV, V and VI. In station II, the wave foot 16 is ground with a grinding belt; and the plate foot 17 is ground in stations III, IV and V.

Abstract: A metallic soldering tip (66) is disclosed having a forward, outer retaining rim (68) and a rear inwardly tapered skirted end (74) of the character to be fitted loosely over a ceramic rod heating element (36). The tip is axially slotted (78,80) from its rear edge to a point forward of the retaining rim (68). An inner sheath (84) over the rear portion of the ceramic rod has a flared forward end (86) which engages the tapered skirted end (74) of the soldering tip while the reduced diameter forward end of an outer retaining sheath (60) engages the retaining rim of the soldering tip and is drawn forcefully rearwardly by a retaining nut (64) threaded onto the handle or body of the soldering implement. The rearward displacement of the outer sheath forces the slotted skirted portion of the soldering tip to press inwardly against the ceramic heating element by virtue of the tapered relation between the inner sheath, the rear of the soldering tip, retaining rim and the forward end of the outer retaining sheath. Thusly, otherwise a loose fitting soldering tip may be caused to be snugly fitting over the heater element without axially scraping or abrasion during the removal or replacement steps.
